Gosh, big deal. Still doesn't explain to me why Subnuts wants to see it, quote "raked over the coals".
The book as a whole, is so much bigger and more important, than the inaccuracies.

I think he said that he was asked to write a review of it and decided to share his feelings with us.

I've read the book and whilst I thought it a jolly good read , I took some of what was written with a pinch of salt - as it would appear a few others did too.

I think a discussion about how we feel about a particular book is hardly "raking it over the coals" - just that , a discussion.
